Songwriting Techniques

R. Stevie Moore plays, sings and mimes.

YOU CAN’T WRITE A SONG (1975)

tumors and rumors
this is nothing like
i’ve ever seen instead of
copy too sloppy
vast improvement must
become a food that’s breaded
lyric let’s hear it
nothing can help you along

you can’t write a song
i can’t write a song
so don’t sing along unless you suck king kong

i know and you know
i can’t say a thing
like that in front of mother
ulcer get seltzer
we are getting sick
of looking at each other
listen while pissin
nothing can help you along

you can’t write a song
i can’t write a song
so don’t sing along unless you saw king kong

get your own picture
friendly though you seem
i’ll dynamite your manor
music for cusic
i would send him to the

right place with a hammer
senseless relentless
nothing can show us the wrong

so don’t sing along unless you think i’m wrong
i’m wrong
i’m wrong yes i am wrong

as appears on
